Report
We loved working with Knight's Residential team a few years ago, so called them for a pretty simple project again recently. They're not what they used to be. My experience this time was very disorganized and disjointed, we basically wasted everyone's time. I recommend going elsewhere.

Report
I had heard this is the company to go to for lighting automation systems and was pleased to have a long conversation with one of the owners. I found out they do a lot of business automation from assembly lines to lighting. Even more surprising was to find out they are the company that maintains the street lights in our community. I'd have no problem recommending this company for commercial work or residential. Nice folks.

Report
I called Knights to hook up a hot tub for one of our customers. They were great to work with. Cameron was able to give us an idea of what it would cost. Came in very reasonable and was great to work with. Customer was very please with the work and ended up using Knights for other work. I highly recommend them.
